September Nymex natural gas (NGU25) on Monday closed down -0.002 (-0.07%).
Sep nat-gas prices have been under pressure over the past 2.5 months and dropped to a 9.5-month nearest-futures low Monday as forecasts for cooler late-summer weather weigh on prices. Forecaster Vaisala on Monday said lower-than-normal temperatures will blanket the US from North Carolina to Northern California for September 4-8, which will reduce demand for nat-gas to power air conditioning.
